The calls from +442046147476 are almost certainly a scam pretending to be O2. Callers use a heavy Indian accent, claim faulty SIMs or bogus upgrades, and often hang up when you answer. They rely on the surprise factor and the reputation of a big telco to trick you into sharing personal details. If you get a call like this, don’t confirm your name, postcode or account info. Let the call go to voicemail, block the number and report it to your network provider’s spam‑filter team. Never click any links sent via text from unknown sources – they’re usually phishing attempts.
My phone marked it as potential spam. This is the second attempt in two days from this or a similar number. Rejected the call, and they disconnected.
Missed the incoming call and later found a 4-minute voicemail featuring two women who sounded Indian, giggling and talking casually. They were unaware the recording was active.
Call purporting to be from Virgin Media.
Two days back - picked up and they disconnected

Fraudulent call from O2.
That fraudster's back at it today – keep your distance!

Rang twice; both times I dropped after realising it was claiming to be O2. Now it's blocked.
Appeared as missed on my O2 phone, automatically blocked by O2 for spam.
Fraud; they texted me with a link to trick me into clicking it.
Posing as O2 representatives
Claimed to be O2, rang four times consecutively... I told the caller to find proper work instead of scamming. Surprisingly, they rang back immediately. Blocked them straight away.
Faking an O2 rep—classic trick.
Dodgy ring—best to ignore and add to block list.
Having seen all the reports, I blocked the number without answering, and no message was left by the caller.
He claimed to be from my supposed network O2, which I'm not on. Despite me saying I was hospitalised with a fractured leg and on morphine, unable to talk, he persisted with offers to switch providers and upgrade. 😡🤬
Undoubtedly fraudulent
Scammers from 02. The instant the caller claimed to be with 02, I realised it was a bunch of lowlife fraudsters. I'm not a customer of theirs. Hung up before he could pitch any savings. Number's blocked now.
This number has rung me multiple times; it's clearly an O2 fraud. Extremely risky since O2 never cold calls—vital to avoid being tricked.
The call came in, but my phone flagged it as suspected spam, so I didn't answer.
My phone identified this number as suspected spam, so I refrained from answering, and no message was left.
Despite my initial scepticism, the caller persisted, claiming to be from O2 and attempting to convince me of an issue with my SIM, but their story did not add up.
